Wash and press is the “normal” way to clean
dress shirts when you take them to the cleaners.
(Don’t be too confused by this. Even though you
take your shirt to the “dry-cleaners”, they are
most likely doing wash and press unless you are
expressly asking them to dry clean ). Here’s
what the process involves:

Wash your shirt in a normal washing machine
using water and detergent.

Remove most of the water from the shirt with the
spin cycle in the washing machine.

Pull the damp shirt onto an industrial shirt
press that closes over the shirt and
simultaneously irons the garment while removing
all of the moisture.
